Is H a normal subgroup in G? [closed]












-1












$begingroup$



Let $G = S_5$ and let $H = langle(1, 2, 3, 4, 5)rangle$. Is $H$ a normal subgroup of $G$ ?




Having some trouble figuring out this problem, it would be great if someone can help to find it!

    What would happen if you conjugate generator by any transposition?

Consider $(12)(12345)(12)=(13452)notinlangle (12345)rangle ={e,(12345),(13524),(14253),(15432)}$.

    Chris Custer provides an answer by using definition but I hope the following is useful to you for finding normal subgroups in $S_n$





    Hint: A subgroup $H$ of $G$ is normal $iff$ $H$ is the union of conjugacy classes
    $$&$$ Remember that, elements of $S_n$ are conjugate $iff$ they have the same cycle type
